Trabalho, Educação e Saúde - TES (Work, Education and Health) is an open access scientific journal, edited by the Joaquim Venâncio Polytechnic School of Health, from Oswaldo Cruz Foundation.
The research that originated the present article is related to the context of the theoretical category of ‘unfinished republics.’ It had the goal of analyzing the perception of the teachers of a pre-school education unit of a municipality in the state of Santa Catarina, Brazil, regarding the production of dignity through work, and was performed in the second semester of 2018. The data was collected using three instruments: individual interviews, focus groups and field journals. The data indicate the loneliness in the interface among teaching in pre-school education, neoliberalism and dignity through the echo of the voices of the teachers who announced the dismissal of their production of dignity through work, which affects directly and negatively their health condition. We indicate the conditions for the establishment of this dehumanizing situation and propose the recognition and stimulus to collective work as tools for transformation.
